San Francisco has held the national record for telephones per capita for the past eight years. Washington. Jan. 11 (U.R) Big shots are vain. Especir.lly when they bet a chance to tickle their own ego. Several of them showed ud at the Wil lard hotel to "audition" for the big broad cast which wil: kick off the drive for funds for the Amen can Heart as sociation. Rep- rcsenta 1 1 v e s, senators, cabi- Harmao Nichols net members, fellows from the supreme court, and the diplomatic corps are competing for a spot on the show.

Louis Charles Rabaut oi Michigan announced that he had been waiting since 1932 to sing a song he helped to write. Where upon, the congressman and fa ther of nine, let go with a fine tenor on "Old Fashioned Girl." He Knows How Frank William Boykin of Alabama, the master of the fili buster, did what he knows how to do the best a filibuster. The critics Were successful in doing what Speaker Sam Ray. burn of the house seldom can do. They shut off the gentleman from Alabama before his recita tion got out of hand. The committee in charge of the show hasn't gotten around to hear all of the prospective amateurs yet, but Rayburn prom ises to be among them. Sen. Estes Kefauver of Ten nessee, a freshman in the upper house, campaigned around his territory wearing a coonskin hat.
